Forward-Looking Statements


This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Report”), including Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Item 2 of Part I of this Report, contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding: our corporate strategy and estimated or future economic performance and results, underlying assumptions about our portfolio (e.g., occupancy rate, lease terms, and tenant credit quality, including our expectations about tenant bankruptcies and interest coverage), possible new acquisitions and dispositions, and our international exposure and acquisition volume; our capital structure, future capital expenditure levels (including any plans to fund our future liquidity needs), and future leverage and debt service obligations; prospective statements regarding our capital markets program, including our credit ratings and “at-the market”“at-the-market” program (“ATM Program”); the outlook for the investment programs that we manage, including possible liquidity events for those programs; statements that we make regarding our ability to remain qualified for taxation as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”); and the impact of recently issued accounting pronouncements and regulatory activity; and the general economic outlook.activity. These statements are based on the current expectations of our management. It is important to note that our actual results could be materially different from those projected in such forward-looking statements. There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable factors could also have material adverse effects on our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, Adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”), and prospects. You should exercise caution in relying on forward-looking statements as they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may materially affect our future results, performance, achievements, or transactions. Information on factors that could impact actual results and cause them to differ from what is anticipated in the forward-looking statements contained herein is included in this Report as well as in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including but not limited to those described in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, dated February 25, 2019 (the “2018 Annual Report”). Moreover, because we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment, new risks are likely to emerge from time to time. Given these risks and uncertainties, potential investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements as a prediction of future results, which speak only as of the date of this Report, unless noted otherwise. Except as required by federal securities laws and the rules and regulations of the SEC, we do not undertake to revise or update any forward-looking statements.


All references to “Notes” throughout the document refer to the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements of the registrant in Part I, Item 1. Financial Statements (Unaudited).

W. P. Carey 3/31/9/30/2019 10-Q8







W. P. CAREY INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)


Note 1. Business and Organization
 
W. P. Carey Inc. (“W. P. Carey”) is a REIT that, together with our consolidated subsidiaries, invests primarily in operationally-critical, single-tenant commercial real estate properties located in the United States and Northern and Western Europe on a long-term basis. We earn revenue principally by leasing the properties we own to companies on a triple-net lease basis, which generally requires each tenant to pay the costs associated with operating and maintaining the property.


Founded in 1973, our shares of common stock are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “WPC.”


We elected to be taxed as a REIT under Section 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code effective as of February 15, 2012. As a REIT, we are not subject to federal income taxes on income and gains that we distribute to our stockholders as long as we satisfy certain requirements, principally relating to the nature of our income and the level of our distributions, as well as other factors. We also own real property in jurisdictions outside the United States through foreign subsidiaries and are subject to income taxes on our pre-tax income earned from properties in such countries. Through our taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”), we also earn revenue as the advisor to certain publicly owned, non-traded investment programs. We hold all of our real estate assets attributable to our Real Estate segment under the REIT structure, while the activities conducted by our Investment Management segment subsidiaries have been organized under TRSs.


On October 31, 2018, one of the non-traded REITs that we advised, Corporate Property Associates 17 – Global Incorporated (“CPA:17 – Global”), merged with and into one of our wholly owned subsidiaries (the “CPA:17 Merger”) (Note 3). At March 31,September 30, 2019, we were the advisor to the following entities:
 
Corporate Property Associates 18 – Global Incorporated (“CPA:18 – Global”), a publicly owned, non-traded REIT that primarily invests in commercial real estate properties; we refer to CPA:17 – Global (until the closing of the CPA:17 Merger on October 31, 2018) and CPA:18 – Global together as the “CPA REITs;”
Carey Watermark Investors Incorporated (“CWI 1”) and Carey Watermark Investors 2 Incorporated (“CWI 2”), two publicly owned, non-traded REITs that invest in lodging and lodging-related properties; we refer to CWI 1 and CWI 2 together as the “CWI REITs” and, together with the CPA REITs, as the “Managed REITs” (Note 3); and
Carey European Student Housing Fund I, L.P. (“CESH”), a limited partnership formed for the purpose of developing, owning, and operating student housing properties and similar investments in Europe (Note 3); we refer to the Managed REITs (including CPA:17 – Global prior to the CPA:17 Merger) and CESH collectively as the “Managed Programs.”


We no longer raise capital for new or existing funds, but currently expect to continue managing our existing Managed Programs through the end of their respective life cycles (Note 3). On October 22, 2019, CWI 1 and CWI 2 announced that they have entered into a definitive merger agreement under which the two companies intend to merge in an all-stock transaction. The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2020, subject to the approval of stockholders of each of CWI 1 and CWI 2, among other conditions. Following the close of the merger, the combined company intends to internalize the management services currently provided by one of our subsidiaries (Note 16).


Reportable Segments


Real Estate — Lease revenues and equity income (Note 7) from our real estate investments generate the vast majority of our earnings. We invest primarily in commercial properties located in the United States and Northern and Western Europe, which are leased to companies on a triple-net lease basis. At March 31,September 30, 2019, our owned portfolio was comprised of our full or partial ownership interests in 1,1681,204 properties, totaling approximately 133.5137.5 million square feet, substantially all of which were net leased to 310324 tenants, with a weighted-average lease term of 10.210.3 years and an occupancy rate of 98.2%98.4%. In addition, at March 31,September 30, 2019, our portfolio was comprised of full or majoritypartial ownership interests in 4821 operating properties, including 4619 self-storage properties and two2 hotels, totaling approximately 3.41.6 million square feet.




W. P. Carey 9/30/2019 10-Q9


Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Investment Management — Through our TRSs, we structure and negotiate investments and debt placement transactions for the Managed Programs, for which we earn structuring revenue, and manage their portfolios of real estate investments, for which we earn asset management revenue. We may earn disposition revenue when we negotiate and structure the sale of properties on behalf of the Managed REITs, and we may also earn incentive revenue and receive other compensation through our advisory agreements with certain of the Managed Programs, including in connection with providing liquidity events for the Managed REITs’ stockholders. In addition, we include equity income generated through our (i) ownership of shares and limited partnership units of the Managed Programs (Note 7) and (ii) special general partner interests in the operating partnerships of the Managed REITs, through which we participate in their cash flows (Note 3), in our Investment Management segment.



W. P. Carey 3/31/2019 10-Q9


Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


At March 31,September 30, 2019, CPA:18 – Global owned all or a portion of 5646 net-leased properties (including certain properties in which we also have an ownership interest), totaling approximately 10.09.6 million square feet, substantially all of which were leased to 9051 tenants, with an occupancy rate of approximately 97.8%99.7%. CPA:18 – Global and the other Managed Programs also had interests in 129127 operating properties, totaling approximately 15.515.9 million square feet in the aggregate.


Note 2. Basis of Presentation


Basis of Presentation


Our interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not necessarily include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair statement of our consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”).


In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial information for the interim periods presented in this Report reflects all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. Our interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2018, which are included in the 2018 Annual Report, as certain disclosures that would substantially duplicate those contained in the audited consolidated financial statements have not been included in this Report. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of operating results for an entire year.


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and the disclosure of contingent amounts in our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Basis of Consolidation


Our consolidated financial statements reflect all of our accounts, including those of our controlled subsidiaries. The portions of equity in consolidated subsidiaries that are not attributable, directly or indirectly, to us are presented as noncontrolling interests. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.


When we obtain an economic interest in an entity, we evaluate the entity to determine if it should be deemed a variable interest entity (“VIE”)VIE and, if so, whether we are the primary beneficiary and are therefore required to consolidate the entity. We apply accounting guidance for consolidation of VIEs to certain entitiesThere have been no significant changes in which the equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial supportour VIE policies from other parties. Fixed price purchase and renewal options within a lease, as well as certain decision-making rights within a loan or joint-venture agreement, can cause us to consider an entity a VIE. Limited partnerships and other similar entities that operate as a partnership will be considered a VIE unless the limited partners hold substantive kick-out rights or participation rights. Significant judgment is required to determine whether a VIE should be consolidated. We review the contractual arrangements provided forwhat was disclosed in the partnership agreement or other related contracts to determine whether the entity is considered a VIE, and to establish whether we have any variable interests in the VIE. We then compare our variable interests, if any, to those of the other variable interest holders to determine which party is the primary beneficiary of the VIE based on whether the entity (i) has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE and (ii) has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The liabilities of these VIEs are non-recourse to us and can only be satisfied from each VIE’s respective assets.2018 Annual Report.


During the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019, we had a net decrease of 9 entities considered to be consolidated VIEs, primarily related to disposition activity and certain lease amendments. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we received a full repayment of our preferred equity interest in an unconsolidated VIE entity. As a result, this preferred equity interest is now retired and is no longer considered a VIE (Note 7).

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


At March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we considered 3122 and 32 entities to be VIEs, respectively, of which we consolidated 15 and 24, as of both period ends,respectively, as we are considered the primary beneficiary. The following table presents a summary of selected financial data of the consolidated VIEs included in our consolidated balance sheets (in thousands):

At March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our seven7 and eight8 unconsolidated VIEs, respectively, included our interests in five5 and six6 unconsolidated real estate investments, respectively, which we account for under the equity method of accounting, and two2 unconsolidated entities, which we accounted for at fair value. We do not consolidate these entities because we are not the primary beneficiary and the nature of our involvement in the activities of these entities allows us to exercise significant influence on, but does not give us power over, decisions that significantly affect the economic performance of these entities. As of March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the net carrying amount of our investments in these entities was $281.1$269.4 million and $301.6 million, respectively, and our maximum exposure to loss in these entities was limited to our investments.

At times, the carrying value of our equity investments may fall below zero for certain investments. We intend to fund our share of the jointly owned investments’ future operating deficits should the need arise. However, we have no legal obligation to pay for any of the liabilities of such investments, nor do we have any legal obligation to fund operating deficits. At March 31, 2019, none of our equity investments had carrying values below zero.


Reclassifications


Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.


We currently present Operating property expenses on its own line item in the consolidated statements of income, which was previously included within Property expenses, excluding reimbursable tenant costs. In addition, in accordance with the SEC’s adoption of certain rule and form amendments on August 17, 2018, we moved Gain on sale of real estate, net in the consolidated statements of income to be included within Other Income and Expenses. Also, structuring revenue and other advisory revenue were previously presented separately, but are now included within Structuring and other advisory revenue in the consolidated statements of income.


In connection with our adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), as described below in Recent Accounting Pronouncements, reimbursable tenant costs (within Real Estate revenues) are now included within Lease revenues in the consolidated statements of income. In addition, we currently present Reimbursable tenant costs and Reimbursable costs from affiliates (both within operating expenses) on their own line items in the consolidated statements of income. Previously, these line items were included within Reimbursable tenant and affiliate costs.


Revenue Recognition


Revenue from contracts under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606 is recognized when, or as, control of promised goods or services is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. At contract inception, we assess the services promised in our contracts with customers and identify a performance obligation for each promise to transfer to the customer a good or service (or bundle of goods or services) that is distinct. To identify the performance obligations, we consider all of the services promised in the contract regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or are implied by customary business practices. ASC 606 does not apply to our lease revenues, which constitute a majority of our revenues, but primarily applies to revenues generated from our hotel operating properties and our Investment Management segment.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


Revenue from contracts for our Real Estate segment primarily represented operating property revenues of $6.3$7.4 million and $7.2$4.3 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $21.5 million and $16.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Such operating property revenues are primarily comprised of revenues from room rentals and from food and beverage services at our hotel operating properties during those periods. We identified a single performance obligation for each distinct service. Performance obligations are typically satisfied at a point in time, at the time of sale, or at the rendering of the service. Fees are generally determined to be fixed. Payment is typically due immediately following the delivery of the service. Revenue from contracts under ASC 606 from our Investment Management segment is discussed in Note 3.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements


Pronouncements Adopted as of March 31,September 30, 2019


In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 modifies the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract: the lessee and the lessor. ASU 2016-02 provides new guidelines that change the accounting for leasing arrangements for lessees, whereby their rights and obligations under substantially all leases, existing and new, are capitalized and recorded on the balance sheet. For lessors, however, the new standard remains generally consistent with existing guidance, but has been updated to align with certain changes to the lessee model and ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”).


We adopted this guidance for our interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective method, applying the transition provisions at the beginning of the period of adoption rather than at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. We elected the package of practical expedients as permitted under the transition guidance, which allowed us to not reassess whether arrangements contain leases, lease classification, and initial direct costs. The adoption of the lease standard did not result in a cumulative effect adjustment recognized in the opening balance of retained earnings as of January 1, 2019.


As a Lessee: we recognized $115.6 million of land lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, $12.7 million of office lease ROU assets, and $95.3 million of corresponding lease liabilities for certain operating office and land lease arrangements for which we were the lessee on January 1, 2019, which included reclassifying below-market ground lease intangible assets, above-market ground lease intangible liabilities, prepaid rent, and deferred rent as a component of the ROU asset (a net reclassification of $33.0 million). See Note 4 for additional disclosures on the presentation of these amounts in our consolidated balance sheets.


ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments under the lease. We determine if an arrangement contains a lease at contract inception and determine the classification of the lease at commencement. Operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. We do not include renewal options in the lease term when calculating the lease liability unless we are reasonably certain we will exercise the option. Variable lease payments are excluded from the ROU assets and lease liabilities and are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. Our variable lease payments

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


consist of increases as a result of the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) or other comparable indices, taxes, and maintenance costs. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.


The implicit rate within our operating leases is generally not determinable and, as a result, we use our incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date to determine the present value of lease payments. The determination of our incremental borrowing rate requires judgment. We determine our incremental borrowing rate for each lease using estimated baseline mortgage rates. These baseline rates are determined based on a review of current mortgage debt market activity for benchmark securities across domestic and international markets, utilizing a yield curve. The rates are then adjusted for various factors, including level of collateralization and lease term.


As a Lessor: a practical expedient allows lessors to combine non-lease components (lease arrangements that include common area maintenance services) with related lease components (lease revenues), if both the timing and pattern of transfer are the same for the non-lease component and related lease component, the lease component is the predominant component, and the lease component would otherwise be classified as an operating lease. We elected the practical expedient. For (i) operating lease arrangements involving real estate that include common area maintenance services and (ii) all real estate arrangements that include real estate taxes and insurance costs, we present these amounts within lease revenues in our consolidated statements of income. We record amounts reimbursed by the lessee in the period in which the applicable expenses are incurred.

Under ASU 2016-02, lessors are allowed to only capitalize incremental direct leasing costs. Historically, we have not capitalized internal legal and leasing costs incurred, and, as a result, willwe were not be impacted by this change.


In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. ASU 2017-12 makes more financial and nonfinancial hedging strategies eligible for hedge accounting. It also amends the presentation and disclosure requirements and eliminates the requirements to separately measure and disclose hedge effectiveness. It is intended to more closely align hedge accounting with companies’ risk management strategies, simplify the application of hedge accounting, and increase transparency as to the scope and results of hedging programs. We adopted this guidance for our interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2019. The adoption of this standard impacted our consolidated financial statements for both cash flow hedges and net investment hedges. Changes in the fair value of our hedging instruments are no longer separated into effective and ineffective portions. The entire change in the fair value of these hedging instruments included in the assessment of effectiveness is now recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss. The impact to our consolidated financial statements as a result of these changes was not material.


In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. ASU 2018-07 expands the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions in exchange for goods and services from nonemployees, which will align the accounting for such payments to nonemployees with the existing requirements for share-based payments granted to employees (with certain exceptions). These share-based payments will now be measured at the grant-date fair value of the equity instrument issued. We adopted this guidance for our interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2019. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.


Pronouncements to be Adopted after March 31,September 30, 2019


In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses. ASU 2016-13 introduces a new model for estimating credit losses for certain types of financial instruments, including loans receivable, held-to-maturity debt securities, and net investments in direct financing leases, amongst other financial instruments. The measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. ASU 2016-13 also modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and expands the disclosure requirements regarding an entity’s assumptions, models, and methods for estimating the allowance for losses. ASU 2016-13 is expected to apply to Net investments in direct financing leases and loans receivable within Other assets, net on our consolidated balance sheets. ASU 2016-13 will be effective for public business entities in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early application of the guidance permitted. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2016-13 on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 3. Agreements and Transactions with Related Parties
 
Advisory Agreements and Partnership Agreements with the Managed Programs
 
We have advisory agreements with each of the existing Managed Programs, pursuant to which we earn fees and are entitled to receive reimbursement for certain fund management expenses. Upon completion of the CPA:17 Merger on October 31, 2018 (Note 1), the advisory agreements with CPA:17 – Global were terminated, and we no longer receive fees or reimbursements from CPA:17 – Global. We no longer raise capital for new or existing funds, but we currently expect to continue to manage all existing Managed Programs and earn various fees (as described below) through the end of their respective life cycles (Note 1, Note 16). We have partnership agreements with each of the Managed Programs, and under the partnership agreements with the Managed REITs, we are entitled to receive certain cash distributions from their respective operating partnerships.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


Performance Obligations and Significant Judgments


The fees earned pursuant to our advisory agreements are considered variable consideration. For the agreements that include multiple performance obligations, including asset management and investment structuring services, revenue is allocated to each performance obligation based on estimates of the price that we would charge for each promised service if it were sold on a standalone basis.


Judgment is applied in assessing whether there should be a constraint on the amount of fees recognized, such as amounts in excess of certain threshold limits with respect to the contract price or any potential clawback provisions included in certain of our arrangements. We exclude fees subject to such constraints to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of those amounts will occur.


Asset Management Revenue
 
Under the advisory agreements with the Managed Programs, we earn asset management revenue for managing their investment portfolios. The following table presents a summary of our asset management fee arrangements with the existing Managed Programs:
Managed Program Rate Payable Description
CPA:18 – Global 0.5% – 1.5% In shares of its Class A common stock and/or cash, at the option of CPA:18 – Global; payable 50% in cash and 50% in shares of its Class A common stock for 2019; payable in shares of its Class A common stock for 2018 Rate depends on the type of investment and is based on the average market or average equity value, as applicable
CWI 1 0.5% In shares of its common stock and/or cash, at our election; payable in shares of its common stock for 2019 and 2018 Rate is based on the average market value of the investment; we are required to pay 20% of the asset management revenue we receive to the subadvisor
CWI 2 0.55% In shares of its Class A common stock and/or cash, at our election; payable in shares of its Class A common stock for 2019 and 2018 Rate is based on the average market value of the investment; we are required to pay 25% of the asset management revenue we receive to the subadvisor
CESH 1.0% In cash Based on gross assets at fair value



The performance obligation for asset management services is satisfied over time as services are rendered. The time-based output method is used to measure progress over time, as this is representative of the transfer of the services. We are compensated for our services on a monthly or quarterly basis. However, these services represent a series of distinct daily services under ASU 2014-09. Accordingly, we satisfy the performance obligation and resolve the variability associated with our fees on a daily basis. We apply the practical expedient and, as a result, do not disclose variable consideration attributable to wholly or partially unsatisfied performance obligations as of the end of the reporting period.


In providing asset management services, we are reimbursed for certain costs. Direct reimbursement of these costs does not represent a separate performance obligation. Payment for asset management services is typically due on the first business day following the month of the delivery of the service.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


Structuring and Other Advisory Revenue
 
Under the terms of the advisory agreements with the Managed Programs, we earn revenue for structuring and negotiating investments and related financing. For the Managed REITs, the combined total of acquisition fees and other acquisition expenses are limited to 6% of the contract prices in aggregate. The following table presents a summary of our structuring fee arrangements with the existing Managed Programs:
Managed Program Rate Payable Description
CPA:18 – Global 4.5% In cash; for all investments, other than readily marketable real estate securities for which we will not receive any acquisition fees, 2.5% upon completion, with 2% deferred and payable in three interest-bearing annual installments Based on the total aggregate cost of the investments or commitments made
CWI REITs 1% – 2.5% In cash upon completion; loan refinancing transactions up to 1% of the principal amount; 2.5% of the total investment cost of the properties acquired Based on the total aggregate cost of the lodging investments or commitments made; we are required to pay 20% and 25% to the subadvisors of CWI 1 and CWI 2, respectively
CESH 2.0% In cash upon acquisition Based on the total aggregate cost of investments or commitments made, including the acquisition, development, construction, or redevelopment of the investments



The performance obligation for investment structuring services is satisfied at a point in time upon the closing of an investment acquisition, when there is an enforceable right to payment, and control (as well as the risks and rewards) has been transferred. Determining when control transfers requires management to make judgments that affect the timing of revenue recognized. Payment is due either on the day of acquisition (current portion) or deferred, as described above (Note 5). We do not believe the deferral of the fees represents a significant financing component.


In addition, we may earn fees for dispositions and mortgage loan refinancings completed on behalf of the Managed Programs.


Reimbursable Costs from Affiliates
 
The existing Managed Programs reimburse us for certain personnel and overhead costs that we incur on their behalf, a summary of which is presented in the table below:
Managed Program Payable Description
CPA:18 – Global In cash Personnel and overhead costs, excluding those related to our legal transactions group, our senior management, and our investments team, are charged to CPA:18 – Global based on the average of the trailing 12-month aggregate reported revenues of the Managed Programs and us, and personnel costs are capped at 1.0% of CPA:18 – Global’s pro rata lease revenues for both 2019 and 2018; for the legal transactions group, costs are charged according to a fee schedule
CWI 1 and CWI 2REITs In cash Actual expenses incurred, excluding those related to our senior management; allocated between the CWI REITs based on the percentage of their total pro rata hotel revenues for the most recently completed quarter
CESH In cash Actual expenses incurred
 
Distributions of Available Cash
 
We are entitled to receive distributions of up to 10% of the Available Cash (as defined in the respective partnership agreements) from the operating partnerships of each of the existing Managed REITs, payable quarterly in arrears. We are required to pay 20% and 25% of such distributions to the subadvisors of CWI 1 and CWI 2, respectively.

Back-End Fees and Interests in the Managed Programs


Under our advisory agreements with certain of the Managed Programs, we may also receive compensation in connection with providing liquidity events for their stockholders. For the Managed REITs, the timing and form of such liquidity events are at the discretion of each REIT’s board of directors. Therefore, there can be no assurance as to whether or when any of these back-end fees or interests will be realized. Such back-end fees or interests may include disposition fees, interests in disposition proceeds, and distributions related to ownership of shares or limited partnership units in the Managed Programs. As a condition of the CPA:17 Merger, we waived certain back-end fees that we would have been entitled to receive from CPA:17 – Global upon its liquidation pursuant to the terms of our advisory agreement and partnership agreement with CPA:17 – Global.


Other Transactions with Affiliates
 
CPA:17 Merger
 
On October 31, 2018, CPA:17 – Global merged with and into one of our wholly owned subsidiaries, primarily in exchange for shares of our common stock, which we accounted for as a business combination under the acquisition method of accounting. The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based upon their preliminary fair values at October 31, 2018. During the first quarter ofnine months ended September 30, 2019, we identified certain measurement period adjustments that impacted the provisional accounting, which decreased Land, buildings and improvements by $5.7 million, decreased Net investments in direct financing leases by $21.0 million (related loss on change in control of interests of $8.4 million was recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 (Note 5)), increased equity investments in real estate by $2.6 million, decreased otherOther assets, net by $3.0$0.8 million, and decreased deferredDeferred income taxes by $0.7 million, resulting in a $0.3$15.8 million decreaseincrease in goodwill.Goodwill. We are in the process of finalizing our assessment of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Accordingly, the fair value of these assets and liabilities and the impact to goodwill are subject to change during the measurement period, which will end up to one year from the acquisition date.date (October 31, 2019).


Loans to Affiliates


From time to time, our Board has approved the making of secured and unsecured loans or lines of credit from us to certain of the Managed Programs, at our sole discretion, with each loan at a rate equal to the rate at which we are able to borrow funds under our Senior Unsecured Credit Facility (Note 10), generally for the purpose of facilitating acquisitions or for working capital purposes.

During the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019, the U.S. dollar strengthened against the euro, as the end-of-period rate for the U.S. dollar in relation to the euro decreased by 1.9%4.9% to $1.1235$1.0889 from $1.1450. As a result of this fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates, the carrying value of our Land, buildings and improvements subject to operating leases decreased by $40.3$138.8 million from December 31, 2018 to March 31,September 30, 2019.


During the second quarter of 2019, we entered into net lease agreements for certain self-storage properties previously classified as operating properties. As a result, in June 2019 and August 2019, we reclassified 22 and 5 consolidated self-storage properties, respectively, with an aggregate carrying value of $287.7 million from Land, buildings and improvements attributable to operating properties to Land, buildings and improvements subject to operating leases. Effective as of those times, we began recognizing lease revenues from these properties, whereas previously we recognized operating property revenues and expenses from these properties.

In connection with a changechanges in lease classificationclassifications due to an extensionextensions of the underlying lease,leases, we reclassified one property4 properties with aan aggregate carrying value of $16.6$44.4 million from Net investments in direct financing leases to Land, buildings and improvements subject to operating leases during the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 (Note 5).


Depreciation expense, including the effect of foreign currency translation, on our buildings and improvements subject to operating leases was $55.1$58.3 million and $37.2$39.2 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $169.9 million and $113.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.


During the third quarter of 2019, we identified measurement period adjustments that impacted the provisional accounting for an investment classified as Land, buildings and improvements, which was acquired in the CPA:17 Merger on October 31, 2018 (Note 3).

In October 2019, 2 of these loans receivable were repaid in full to us for $10.0 million.

Credit Quality of Finance Receivables
 
We generally invest in facilities that we believe are critical to a tenant’s business and therefore have a lower risk of tenant default. At both March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, none of the balances of our finance receivables were past due. Other than the lease extensionextensions noted under Net Investments in Direct Financing Leases above, there were no material modifications of finance receivables during the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019.


We evaluate the credit quality of our finance receivables utilizing an internal five-point credit rating scale, with one representing the highest credit quality and five representing the lowest. A credit quality of one through three indicates a range of investment grade to stable. A credit quality of four through five indicates a range of inclusion on the watch list to risk of default. The credit quality evaluation of our finance receivables is updated quarterly. We believe the credit quality of our deferred acquisition fees receivable falls under category one, as CPA:18 – Global is expected to have the available cash to make such payments.

(a)
In connection with our adoption of ASU 2016-02 (Note 2), in the first quarter of 2019, we prospectively reclassified below-market ground lease intangible assets and above-market ground lease intangible liabilities to be a component of ROU assets within In-place lease intangible assets and other in our consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2018, below-market ground lease intangible assets were included in In-place lease intangible assets and other in the consolidated balance sheets, and above-market ground lease intangible liabilities were included in Below-market rent and other intangible liabilities, net in the consolidated balance sheets.


During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the U.S. dollar strengthened against the euro, resulting in a decrease of $37.9 million in the carrying value of our net intangible assets from December 31, 2018 to September 30, 2019. Net amortization of intangibles, including the effect of foreign currency translation, was $69.4$64.5 million and $38.8$40.5 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $204.1 million and $118.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Amortization of below-market rent and above-market rent intangibles is recorded as an adjustment to Lease revenues; amortization of internal-use software development, trade name, and in-place lease intangibles is included in Depreciation and amortization; and amortization of above-market ground lease and below-market ground lease intangibles was included in Property expenses, excluding reimbursable tenant costs, prior to the reclassification of above-market ground lease and below-market ground lease intangibles to ROU assets in the first quarter of 2019, as described above and in Note 2.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


Note 7. Equity Investments in the Managed Programs and Real Estate
 
We own interests in certain unconsolidated real estate investments with CPA:18 – Global and third parties, and also own interests in the Managed Programs. We account for our interests in these investments under the equity method of accounting (i.e., at cost, increased or decreased by our share of earnings or losses, less distributions, plus contributions and other adjustments required by equity method accounting, such as basis differences) or at fair value by electing the equity method fair value option available under GAAP.


We classify distributions received from equity method investments using the cumulative earnings approach. Distributions received are considered returns on the investment and classified as cash inflows from operating activities. If, however, the investor’s cumulative distributions received, less distributions received in prior periods determined to be returns of investment, exceeds cumulative equity in earnings recognized, the excess is considered a return of investment and is classified as cash inflows from investing activities.
 
The following table presents Equity in earnings of equity method investments in the Managed Programs and real estate, which represents our proportionate share of the income or losses of these investments, as well as certain adjustments related to amortization of basis differences related to purchase accounting adjustments (in thousands):

(a)The carrying value of this investment is affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate of the euro.
(b)This investment wasis reported using the hypothetical liquidation at book value model, which may have beenbe different than pro rata ownership percentages, primarily due to the capital structure of the partnership agreement.

(d)
During the first quarter of 2019, we identified measurement period adjustments that impacted the provisional accounting for this investment, which was acquired in the CPA:17 Merger on October 31, 2018 (Note 3). As such, the CPA:17 Merger purchase price allocated to this jointly owned investment increased by approximately $5.2 million, of which our proportionate share was $2.6 million.
(e)On February 27, 2019, we received a full repayment of our preferred equity interest in this investment totaling $15.0 million. As a result, this preferred equity interest is now retired.


We received aggregate distributions of $3.4$14.6 million and $4.4$15.4 million from our other unconsolidated real estate investments for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Note 8. Fair Value Measurements
 
The fair value of an asset is defined as the exit price, which is the amount that would either be received when an asset is sold or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers are: Level 1, for which quoted market prices for identical instruments are available in active markets, such as money market funds, equity securities, and U.S. Treasury securities; Level 2, for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the instrument, such as certain derivative instruments including interest rate caps, interest rate swaps, foreign currency forward contracts, and foreign currency collars; and Level 3, for securities that do not fall into Level 1 or Level 2 and for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring us to develop our own assumptions.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis


The methods and assumptions described below were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument. For significant Level 3 items, we have also provided the unobservable inputs.


Money Market Funds — Our money market funds, which are included in Cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated financial statements, are comprised of government securities and U.S. Treasury bills. These funds were classified as Level 1 as we used quoted prices from active markets to determine their fair values.

Derivative Assets and Liabilities — Our derivative assets and liabilities, which are included in Other assets, net and Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities, respectively, in the consolidated financial statements, are comprised of foreign currency forward contracts, foreign currency collars, interest rate swaps, interest rate caps, and stock warrants (Note 9).



W. P. Carey 3/31/2019 10-Q28


Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


The valuation of our derivative instruments (excluding stock warrants) is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, as well as observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves, spot and forward rates, and implied volatilities. We incorporate credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of our derivative instruments for the effect of nonperformance risk, we have considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts, and guarantees. These derivative instruments were classified as Level 2 as these instruments are custom, over-the-counter contracts with various bank counterparties that are not traded in an active market.


The stock warrants were measured at fair value using valuation models that incorporate market inputs and our own assumptions about future cash flows. We classified these assets as Level 3 because these assets are not traded in an active market.


Equity Investment in CESH We have elected to account for our investment in CESH, which is included in Equity investments in the Managed Programs and real estate in the consolidated financial statements, at fair value by selecting the equity method fair value option available under GAAP (Note 7). We classified this investment as Level 3 because we primarily used valuation models that incorporate unobservable inputs to determine its fair value. The fair value of our equity investment in CESH approximated its carrying value as of March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.


Investment in Shares of a Cold Storage Operator We have elected to apply the measurement alternative under ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments — Overall (Subtopic 825-10) to account for our investment in shares of a cold storage operator, which is included in Other assets, net in the consolidated financial statements, atstatements. Under this alternative, the carrying value is adjusted for any impairments or changes in fair value using valuation models that incorporatedresulting from observable transactions for similar or identical investments in the following significant unobservable inputs: a 15.6x multiple of a comparable public company and a 25% EBITDA growth rate.issuer. We classified this investment as Level 3 because it is not traded in an active market. During the first quarter of 2019, we identified measurement period adjustments that impacted the provisional accounting for this investment, which was acquired in the CPA:17 Merger on October 31, 2018 (Note 3). As such, the CPA:17 Merger purchase price allocated to this investment decreased by approximately $3.0 million. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized unrealized losses on our investment in shares of a cold storage operator totaling $3.3 million, which was recorded within Other gains and (losses) in the consolidated financial statements. The fair value of this investment approximated its carrying value, which was $113.3$110.0 million and $116.3 million at March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.


Investment in Shares of GCIF We account for our investment in shares of Guggenheim Credit Income Fund (“GCIF”), which is included in Other assets, net in the consolidated financial statements, at fair value. We classified this investment as Level 2 because we used a quoted price from an inactive market to determine its fair value. The fair valueDuring the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we redeemed a portion of our investment in shares of GCIF approximated its carrying value, which was $22.5 million and $23.6 million at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.for approximately $3.3 million. Distributions of earnings from GCIF and unrealized gains or losses recognized on GCIF are recorded within Other gains and (losses) in the consolidated financial statements. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized unrealized losses on our investment in shares of GCIF totaling $1.1 million, due to a decrease in the net asset value of the investment. The fair value of our investment in shares of GCIF approximated its carrying value, which was $19.1 million and $23.6 million at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.


We did not have any transfers into or out of Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 category of measurements during either the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 or 2018. Gains and losses (realized and unrealized) recognized on items measured at fair value on a recurring basis included in earnings are reported within Other gains and (losses) on our consolidated financial statements, except for gains and losses recognized on our equity investment in CESH, which are reported within Other comprehensive income.statements.

The carrying value of Non-recourse mortgages, net includes unamortized discount of $21.0 million and $21.8 million at March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
(c)We determined the estimated fair value of the Senior Unsecured Notes using observed market prices in an open market with limited trading volume.
(d)We determined the estimated fair value of these financial instruments using a discounted cash flow model that estimates the present value of the future loan payments by discounting such payments at current estimated market interest rates. The estimated market interest rates take into accountconsider interest rate risk and the value of the underlying collateral, which includes quality of the collateral, the credit quality of the tenant/obligor, and the time until maturity.


We estimated that our other financial assets and liabilities, including amounts outstanding under our Senior Unsecured Credit Facility (Note 10) but excluding net investments in direct financing leases, had fair values that approximated their carrying values at both March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.


Items Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis (Including Impairment Charges)


We periodically assess whether there are any indicators that the value of our real estate investments may be impaired or that their carrying value may not be recoverable. ForThere have been no significant changes in our impairment policies from what was disclosed in the 2018 Annual Report.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized impairment charges totaling $25.8 million on a portfolio of 4 properties accounted for as Net investments in real estate held for use for which an impairment indicator is identified, we follow a two-step process to determine whetherdirect financing leases, based on the investment is impaired and to determine the amount of the charge. First, we compare the carrying value of the property’s asset group to the future undiscounted net cash flows that we expect the property’s asset group will generate, including any estimated proceedsexpected to be derived from the eventual sale of the property’s asset group. If this amount is less than the carrying value, the property’s asset group is considered to be not recoverable. We then measure the impairment charge as the excess of the carrying value of the property’s asset group over the estimated fair value of the property’s asset group, which is primarily determined using market information such as recent comparable sales, broker quotes, or third-party appraisals. If relevant market information is not available or is not deemed appropriate, we perform a future net cash flow analysis, discounted for inherent risk associated with each investment. We determined that the significant inputs used to value these investments fall within Level 3 for fair value reporting. As a result of our assessments, we calculated impairment charges based on market conditions and assumptions that existedunderlying assets (discounted at the time. The valuation of real estate is subject to significant judgment and actual results may differ materially if market conditions orrate implicit in the underlying assumptions change.lease), in accordance with ASC 310, Receivables.

We did not recognize any impairment charges during the three months ended March 31, 2019.


During the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2018, we recognized impairment charges totaling $4.8 million on two2 properties in order to reduce the carrying values of the properties to their estimated fair values, which was $3.9 million in each case. We recognized an impairment charge of $3.8 million on one of those properties due to a tenant bankruptcy and the resulting vacancy, and the fair value measurement for the property was determined by estimating discounted cash flows using market rent assumptions. We recognized an impairment charge of $1.0 million on the other property due to a lease expiration and resulting vacancy, and the fair value measurement for the property approximated its estimated selling price. This property was sold in July 2019.

Note 9. Risk Management and Use of Derivative Financial Instruments


Risk Management
 
In the normal course of our ongoing business operations, we encounter economic risk. There are four main components of economic risk that impact us: interest rate risk, credit risk, market risk, and foreign currency risk. We are primarily subject to interest rate risk on our interest-bearing liabilities, including our Senior Unsecured Credit Facility and Senior Unsecured Notes (Note 10). Credit risk is the risk of default on our operations and our tenants’ inability or unwillingness to make contractually required payments. Market risk includes changes in the value of our properties and related loans, as well as changes in the value of our other securities and the shares or limited partnership units we hold in the Managed Programs due to changes in interest rates or other market factors. We own investments in North America, Europe, and Japan and are subject to risks associated with fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates.


Derivative Financial Instruments
 
When we use derivative instruments, it is generally to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rate movements. We have not entered into, and do not plan to enter into, financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. In addition to entering into derivative instruments on our own behalf, we may also be a party to derivative instruments that are embedded in other contracts, and we may be granted common stock warrants by lessees when structuring

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

lease transactions, which are considered to be derivative instruments. The primary risks related to our use of derivative instruments include a counterparty to a hedging arrangement defaulting on its obligation and a downgrade in the credit quality of a counterparty to such an extent that our ability to sell or assign our side of the hedging transaction is impaired. While we seek to mitigate these risks by entering into hedging arrangements with large financial institutions that we deem to be creditworthy, it is possible that our hedging transactions, which are intended to limit losses, could adversely affect our earnings. Furthermore, if we terminate a hedging arrangement, we may be obligated to pay certain costs, such as transaction or breakage fees. We have established policies and procedures for risk assessment and the approval, reporting, and monitoring of derivative financial instrument activities.


We measure derivative instruments at fair value and record them as assets or liabilities, depending on our rights or obligations under the applicable derivative contract. Derivatives that are not designated as hedges must be adjusted to fair value through earnings. For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges, the change in fair value of the derivative is recognized in Other comprehensive incomeloss until the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the cash flow hedges representing hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in earnings over the life of the hedge on a systematic and rational basis, as documented at hedge inception in accordance with our accounting policy election. Such gains and losses are recorded within Other gains and (losses) or Interest expense in our consolidated statements of income. The earnings recognition of excluded components is presented in the same line item as the hedged transactions. For derivatives designated and that qualify as a net investment hedge, the change in the fair value and/or the net settlement of the derivative is reported in Other comprehensive incomeloss as part of the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment. Amounts are reclassified out of Other comprehensive incomeloss into earnings (within Gain on sale of real estate, net, in our consolidated statements of income) when the hedged net investment is either sold or substantially liquidated.


All derivative transactions with an individual counterparty are governed by a master International Swap and Derivatives Association agreement, which can be considered as a master netting arrangement; however, we report all our derivative instruments on a gross basis on our consolidated financial statements. At both March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, no0 cash collateral had been posted nor received for any of our derivative positions.

See below for information on our purposes for entering into derivative instruments.


Interest Rate Swaps and Caps


We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through our borrowing activities. To limit this exposure, we generally seek long-term debt financing on a fixed-rate basis. However, from time to time, we or our investment partners have obtained, and may in the future obtain, variable-rate, non-recourse mortgage loans and, as a result, we have entered into, and may continue to enter into, interest rate swap agreements or interest rate cap agreements with counterparties. Interest rate swaps, which effectively convert the variable-rate debt service obligations of a loan to a fixed rate, are agreements in which one party exchanges a stream of interest payments for a counterparty’s stream of cash flow over a specific period. The notional, or face, amount on which the swaps are based is not exchanged. Interest rate caps limit the effective borrowing rate of variable-ratevariable-

(b)These interest rate swaps do not qualify for hedge accounting; however, they do protect against fluctuations in interest rates related to the underlying variable-rate debt.


Foreign Currency Forward Contracts and Collars
 
We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate movements, primarily in the euro and, to a lesser extent, the British pound sterling, the Danish krone, the Norwegian krone, and certain other currencies. In order to hedge certain of our foreign currency cash flow exposures, we enter into foreign currency forward contracts and collars. A foreign currency forward contract is a commitment to deliver a certain amount of currency at a certain price on a specific date in the future. A foreign currency collar consists of a written call option and a purchased put option to sell the foreign currency at a range of predetermined exchange rates. By entering into forward contracts and holding them to maturity, we are locked into a future currency exchange rate for the term of the contract. A foreign currency collar guarantees that the exchange rate of the currency will not fluctuate beyond the range of the options’ strike prices. Our foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency collars have maturities of 77 months or less.

Some of the agreements we have with our derivative counterparties contain cross-default provisions that could trigger a declaration of default on our derivative obligations if we default, or are capable of being declared in default, on certain of our indebtedness. At March 31,September 30, 2019, we had not been declared in default on any of our derivative obligations. The estimated fair value of our derivatives in a net liability position was $8.6$11.0 million and $7.3 million at March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, which included accrued interest and any nonperformance risk adjustments. If we had breached any of these provisions at March 31,September 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018, we could have been required to settle our obligations under these agreements at their aggregate termination value of $8.9$11.2 million and $7.6 million, respectively.


Net Investment Hedges


We have completed four5 offerings of euro-denominated senior notes, each with a principal amount of €500.0 million, which we refer to as the 2.0% Senior Notes due 2023, 2.25% Senior Notes due 2024, 2.250% Senior Notes due 2026, and 2.125% Senior Notes due 2027, and 1.350% Senior Notes due 2028 (Note 10). In addition, at March 31,September 30, 2019, the amountsamount borrowed in euro and Japanese yen outstanding under our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility (Note 10) were €49.0 million andwas ¥2.4 billion, respectively.billion. These borrowings are designated as, and are effective as, economic hedges of our net investments in foreign entities. Exchange rate variations impact our financial results because the financial results of our foreign subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars each period, with the effect of exchange rate variations being recorded in Other comprehensive incomeloss as part of the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment. As a result, changes in the value of our borrowings under our euro-denominated senior notes and changes in the value of our euro and Japanese yen borrowings under our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, related to changes in the spot rates, will be reported in the same manner as foreign currency translation adjustments, which are recorded in Other comprehensive incomeloss as part of the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment. Such gains (losses) related to non-derivative net investment hedges were $44.1$108.8 million and $(40.0)$10.5 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $122.3 million and $55.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.


At March 31,September 30, 2019, we also had foreign currency forward contracts that were designated as net investment hedges, as discussed in“Derivative Financial Instruments” above.

Covenants


The Credit Agreement and each of the Senior Unsecured Notes include customary financial maintenance covenants that require us to maintain certain ratios and benchmarks at the end of each quarter. The Credit Agreement also contains various customary affirmative and negative covenants applicable to us and our subsidiaries, subject to materiality and other qualifications, baskets, and exceptions as outlined in the Credit Agreement. We were in compliance with all of these covenants at March 31,September 30, 2019.


We may make unlimited Restricted Payments (as defined in the Credit Agreement), as long as no non-payment default or financial covenant default has occurred before, or would on a pro forma basis occur as a result of, the Restricted Payment. In addition, we may make Restricted Payments in an amount required to (i) maintain our REIT status and (ii) as a result of that status, not pay federal or state income or excise tax, as long as the loans under the Credit Agreement have not been accelerated and no bankruptcy or event of default has occurred.


Obligations under the Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility may be declared immediately due and payable upon the occurrence of certain events of default as defined in the Credit Agreement, including failure to pay any principal when due and payable, failure to pay interest within five business days after becoming due, failure to comply with any covenant, representation or condition of any loan document, any change of control, cross-defaults, and certain other events as set forth in the Credit Agreement, with grace periods in some cases.

(a)The grant date fair value of RSAs and RSUs reflect our stock price on the date of grant on a one-for-one basis. The grant date fair value of PSUs was determined utilizing (i) a Monte Carlo simulation model to generate an estimate of our future stock price over the three-year performance period and (ii) future financial performance projections. To estimate the fair value of PSUs granted during the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019, we used a risk-free interest rate of 2.5%, an expected volatility rate of 15.8%, and assumed a dividend yield of zero.0.
(b)The grant date fair value of shares vested during the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 was $38.1$39.4 million. Employees have the option to take immediate delivery of the shares upon vesting or defer receipt to a future date pursuant to previously made deferral elections. At March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had an obligation to issue 893,713 and 867,871 shares, respectively, of our common stock underlying such deferred awards, which is recorded within Total stockholders’ equity as a Deferred compensation obligation of $37.3 million and $35.8 million, respectively.
(c)Vesting and payment of the PSUs is conditioned upon certain company and/or market performance goals being met during the relevant three-year performance period. The ultimate number of PSUs to be vested will depend on the extent to which the performance goals are met and can range from zero0 to three3 times the original awards. As a result, we recorded adjustments at March 31,September 30, 2019 to reflect the number of shares expected to be issued when the PSUs vest.
(d)At March 31,September 30, 2019, total unrecognized compensation expense related to these awards was approximately $33.0$26.7 million, with an aggregate weighted-average remaining term of 2.31.9 years.

Earnings Per Share
 
Under current authoritative guidance for determining earnings per share, all nonvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends are considered to be participating securities and therefore are included in the computation of earnings per share under the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common shares and participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Certain of our nonvested RSUs contain rights to receive non-forfeitable dividend equivalents or dividends, respectively, and therefore we apply the two-class method of computing earnings per share. The calculation of earnings per share below excludes the income attributable to the nonvested participating RSUs from the numerator and such nonvested shares in the denominator. The following table summarizes basic and diluted earnings (in thousands, except share amounts):

Note 13. Income Taxes


We elected to be treated as a REIT and believe that we have been organized and have operated in such a manner to maintain our qualification as a REIT for federal and state income tax purposes. As a REIT, we are generally not subject to corporate level federal income taxes on earnings distributed to our stockholders. Since inception, we have distributed at least 100% of our taxable income annually and intend to do so for the tax year ending December 31, 2019. Accordingly, we have not included any provisions for federal income taxes related to the REIT in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018.


Certain of our subsidiaries have elected TRS status. A TRS may provide certain services considered impermissible for REITs and may hold assets that REITs may not hold directly. We also own real property in jurisdictions outside the United States through foreign subsidiaries and are subject to income taxes on our pre-tax income earned from properties in such countries. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include an interim tax provision for our TRSs and foreign subsidiaries, as necessary, for the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018. Current income tax (expense) benefit (expense) was $0.3$(5.2) million and $(6.2)$1.2 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $(8.3) million and $(8.2) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Benefit fromProvision for income taxes for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 included a current tax benefit of approximately $6.3 million due to a change in tax position for state and local taxes.


Our TRSs and foreign subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal, state, and foreign income taxes. As such, deferred tax assets and liabilities are established for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities at the enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse. A valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is provided if we believe that it is more likely than not that we will not realize the tax benefit of deferred tax assets based on available evidence at the time the determination is made. A change in circumstances may cause us to change our judgment about whether the tax benefit of a deferred tax asset will more likely than not be realized. We generally report any change in the valuation allowance through our income statement in the period in which such changes in circumstances occur. The majority of our deferred tax assets relate to the timing difference between the financial reporting basis and tax basis for stock-based compensation expense. The majority of our deferred tax liabilities relate to differences between the tax basis and financial reporting basis of the assets acquired in acquisitions in which the tax basis of such assets was not stepped up to fair value for income tax purposes. Benefit from income taxes included deferredDeferred income tax benefit of $1.8(expense) was $1.0 million and $12.2$(3.9) million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $3.2 million and $5.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Benefit fromProvision for income taxes for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2018 included a deferred tax benefit of approximately $6.2 million as a result of the release of a deferred tax liability relating to a property holding company that was no longer required due to a change in tax classification.

Note 14. Property Dispositions
 
We have an active capital recycling program, with a goal of extending the average lease term through reinvestment, improving portfolio credit quality through dispositions and acquisitions of assets, increasing the asset criticality factor in our portfolio, and/or executing strategic dispositions of assets. We may make a decision to dispose of a property when it is vacant as a result of tenants vacating space, tenants electing not to renew their leases, tenant insolvency, or lease rejection in the bankruptcy process. In such cases, we assess whether we can obtain the highest value from the property by selling it, as opposed to re-leasing it. We may also sell a property when we receive an unsolicited offer or negotiate a price for an investment that is consistent with our strategy for that investment. When it is appropriate to do so, we classify the property as an asset held for sale on our consolidated balance sheet. All property dispositions are recorded within our Real Estate segment.


2019 — During the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019, we sold one property for proceeds of $4.9 million, net of selling costs,4 and recognized a net gain on the sale of $0.9 million.

2018 — During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we sold five9 properties, respectively, for total proceeds of $35.7$13.9 million and $26.5 million, respectively, net of selling costs, and recognized a net gain on these sales totaling $6.7$0.1 million and $0.7 million, respectively (inclusive of income taxes totaling less than $0.1$0.2 million for both periods recognized upon sale).



In addition, in June 2019, a loan receivable was repaid in full to us for $9.3 million, which resulted in a net loss of $0.1 million (Note 5).

2018 — During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, we sold 3 and 10 properties, respectively, for total proceeds of $17.4 million and $95.1 million, respectively, net of selling costs, and recognized a net gain on these sales totaling $0.3 million and $12.7 million, respectively (inclusive of income taxes totaling $0.9 million and $2.1 million, respectively, recognized upon sale). Disposition activity included the sale of 1 of our hotel operating properties in April 2018.

In addition, in June 2018, we completed a nonmonetary transaction, in which we disposed of 23 properties in exchange for the acquisition of one property leased to the same tenant. This swap was recorded based on the fair value of the property acquired of $85.5 million, which resulted in a net gain of $6.3 million, and was a non-cash investing activity.

Item 2.2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Resultsof Operations.
 
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is intended to assist in understanding our financial statements and the reasons for changes in certain key components of our financial statements from period to period. This item also provides our perspective on our financial position and liquidity, as well as certain other factors that may affect our future results. The discussion also breaks down the financial results of our business by segment to provide a better understanding of how these segments and their results affect our financial condition and results of operations. Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the 2018 Annual Report and subsequent reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.


Business Overview
 
As described in more detail in Item 1 of the 2018 Annual Report, we are a diversified net lease REIT with a portfolio of operationally-critical, commercial real estate that includes 1,1681,204 net lease properties covering approximately 133.5137.5 million square feet and 4821 operating properties as of March 31,September 30, 2019. We invest in high-quality single tenant industrial, warehouse, office, retail, and retailself-storage properties subject to long-term net leases with built-in rent escalators. Our portfolio is located primarily in the United States and Northern and Western Europe, and we believe it is well-diversified by tenant, property type, geographic location, and tenant industry.


We also earn fees and other income by managing the portfolios of the Managed Programs through our investment management business. We no longer raise capital for new or existing funds, but currently expect to continue managing our existing Managed Programs through the end of their respective life cycles (Note 1).


Significant Development

CWI 1 and CWI 2 Proposed Merger

On October 22, 2019, CWI 1 and CWI 2 announced that they have entered into a definitive merger agreement under which the two companies intend to merge in an all-stock transaction with CWI 2 as the surviving entity. The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2020, subject to the approval of stockholders of each of CWI 1 and CWI 2, among other conditions. In connection with the proposed merger, we have entered into an internalization agreement and transition services agreement. Immediately following the closing of the proposed merger, which is subject to customary conditions:

(i)the advisory agreements with each of CWI 1 and CWI 2 will terminate;
(ii)the operating partnerships of each of CWI 1 and CWI 2 will redeem the special general partnership interests that we currently hold, for which we will receive approximately $97 million in consideration, comprised of $65 million in shares of CWI 2 preferred stock and 2,840,549 shares in CWI 2 common stock valued at approximately $32 million;
(iii)CWI 2 will internalize the management services currently provided by us; and

Financial Highlights
 
During the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019, we completed the following (as further described in the consolidated financial statements):


Real Estate


Investments


We acquired five12 investments totaling $184.5$369.7 million (Note 4).
We completed twofour construction projects at a cost totaling $53.0$79.4 million. Construction projects include build-to-suit and expansion projects (Note 4).
We committed to purchase a warehouse and distribution facility in Knoxville, Tennessee, for approximately $68.0 million upon completion of construction of the property, which is expected to take place during the second quarter of 2020 (Note 4).


Financing and Capital Markets Transactions


W. P. Carey 9/30/2019 10-Q49




We committed to purchase two warehouse facilities in Hillerød and Hammelev, Denmark, for approximately $19.3 million (based on the exchange rate of the Danish krone at September 30, 2019) upon completion of construction of the properties, which is expected to take place during the fourth quarter of 2019 (Note 4).
We committed to fund an aggregate of $16.9 million (based on the exchange rate of the euro at September 30, 2019) for a build-to-suit project for an industrial facility in Katowice, Poland. We currently expect to complete the project in the fourth quarter of 2019 (Note 4).
We committed to fund an aggregate of $12.5 million for an expansion project for an existing tenant at an industrial facility in McCalla, Alabama. We currently expect to complete the project in the fourth quarter of 2019 (Note 4).
We committed to fund an aggregate of $8.0 million (based on the exchange rate of the euro at September 30, 2019) for an expansion project for an existing tenant at an industrial and office facility in Marktheidenfeld, Germany. We currently expect to complete the project in the second quarter of 2020 (Note 4).

Leasing Transactions

We entered into net lease agreements for certain self-storage properties previously classified as operating properties. As a result, in June 2019 and August 2019, we reclassified 22 and five consolidated self-storage properties, respectively, with an aggregate carrying value of $287.7 million from Land, buildings and improvements attributable to operating properties to Land, buildings and improvements subject to operating leases. Effective as of those times, we began recognizing lease revenues from these properties, whereas previously we recognized operating property revenues and expenses from these properties (Note 4).
We restructured the leases with a tenant on a portfolio of grocery store and warehouse properties in Croatia. For 19 properties, we reached agreements on new rents, reducing contractual rents, but increasing total contractual minimum annualized base rent (“ABR”) from $10.2 million to $15.4 million. We extended the lease terms on these properties by a weighted average of three years. We also agreed to a payment plan to collect approximately 50% of unpaid back rents plus value-added tax, which will be paid in ten monthly installments of €1.0 million each (equivalent to approximately $1.1 million) starting in July 2019. We received such payments during the third quarter of 2019 totaling approximately $3.3 million, which was included within Lease termination income and other on our consolidated statements of income.
We received proceeds totaling $8.3 million and $9.1 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, from a bankruptcy claim on a prior tenant, which was included within Lease termination income and other on our consolidated statements of income.

Financing and Capital Markets Transactions

On June 14, 2019, we completed an underwritten public offering of $325.0 million of 3.850% Senior Notes due 2029, at a price of 98.876% of par value. These 3.850% Senior Notes due 2029 have a 10.1-year term and are scheduled to mature on July 15, 2029 (Note 10).
On September 19, 2019, we completed a public offering of €500.0 million of 1.350% Senior Notes due 2028, at a price of 99.266% of par value, issued by our wholly owned finance subsidiary, WPC Eurobond B.V., and fully and unconditionally guaranteed by us. These 1.350% Senior Notes due 2028 have an 8.6-year term and are scheduled to mature on April 15, 2028 (Note 10).
We issued 4,053,6236,672,412 shares of our common stock under our ATM Program at a weighted-average price of $76.17$79.70 per share for net proceeds of $303.8$523.5 million (Note 12). Proceeds from issuances of common stock under our ATM Program during the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 were used primarily to prepay certain non-recourse mortgage loans (as described below and in Note 10) and to fund acquisitions. See Note 16 for a discussion of activity under our ATM Program since March 31, 2019.
We reduced our mortgage debt outstanding by prepaying or repaying at maturity a total of $218.4$912.2 million of non-recourse mortgage loans with a weighted-average interest rate of 5.0%4.9% (Note 10). See Note 16 for a discussion of mortgage loan prepayments since March 31, 2019.


Investment Management


As of March 31,September 30, 2019, we managed total assets of approximately $7.6 billion on behalf of CPA:18 – Global, CWI 1, CWI 2, and CESH. Upon completion of the CPA:17 Merger (Note 3), we ceased earning advisory fees and other income previously earned when we served as advisor to CPA:17 – Global. During the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2018, such fees and other income from CPA:17 – Global totaled $15.8$48.1 million. We expect to structure fewer investments on behalf of the Managed Programs going forward because the Managed Programs are fully invested, we no longer raise capital for new or existing funds, and in light of the completion of the CPA:17 Merger.

(a)
We consider AFFO, a supplemental measure that is not defined by GAAP (a “non-GAAP measure”), to be an important measure in the evaluation of our operating performance. See Supplemental Financial Measures below for our definition of this non-GAAP measure and a reconciliation to its most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Revenues and Net Income Attributable to W. P. Carey


Total revenues increased significantly for the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 as compared to the same periodperiods in 2018, due to increases within our Real Estate segment, partially offset by decreases within our Investment Management segment. Real Estate revenue increased due to an increase in lease revenues and operating property revenues, primarily from the properties we acquired in the CPA:17 Merger on October 31, 2018 (Note 3) and other property acquisition activity, partially offset by the impact of property dispositions. We also received proceeds from a bankruptcy claim on a prior tenant during the current year periods. Investment Management revenue decreased primarily due to the cessation of asset management revenue earned from CPA:17 – Global after the CPA:17 Merger on October 31, 2018 (Note 3)., as well as lower structuring and other advisory revenue earned from the Managed Programs.

Carey increaseddecreased for the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 as compared to the same periodperiods in 2018, due to increasesdecreases within our Real Estate segment, partially offset by decreases withinboth our Investment Management segment. Net income fromand Real Estate attributable to W. P. Carey increased primarily due to acquisitions and properties acquired in the CPA:17 Merger (Note 3). The increase in revenues from such properties was partially offset by corresponding increases in depreciation and amortization, interest expense, and property expenses.segments. Net income from Investment Management attributable to W. P. Carey decreased primarily due to the cessation of Investment Management revenues and distributions previously earned from CPA:17 – Global (Note 3), partially offset by a one-time tax benefitbenefits recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 (Note 13). Net income from Real Estate attributable to W. P. Carey decreased primarily due to impairment charges (Note 8) and loss on extinguishment of debt (Note 10) recognized during the current year periods, as well as a lower gain on sale of real estate recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the prior year period (Note 1314). These decreases were offset by the impact of real estate acquisitions and properties acquired in the CPA:17 Merger (Note 3). The increase in revenues from such properties was partially offset by corresponding increases in depreciation and amortization, interest expense, and property expenses. We also received proceeds from a bankruptcy claim on a prior tenant during the current year periods.


W. P. Carey 3/31/2019 10-Q46






Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities


Net cash provided by operating activities increased for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to an increase in cash flow generated from properties acquired during 2018 and 2019, including properties acquired in the CPA:17 Merger, as well as proceeds from a bankruptcy claim on a prior tenant received during the current year period, partially offset by a decrease in cash flow as a result of property dispositions during 2018 and 2019, as well as an increase in interest expense, primarily due to the assumption of non-recourse mortgage loans in the CPA:17 Merger and the issuance of euro-denominated senior unsecured notes in March 2018, October 2018, June 2019, and October 2018.September 2019.


AFFO


AFFO increased for the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 as compared to the same periodperiods in 2018, primarily due to higher lease revenues and operating property revenues, as well as proceeds from a bankruptcy claim on a prior tenant received during the current year periods, partially offset by higher interest expense and lower Investment Management revenues and cash distributions as a result of the CPA:17 Merger.

Terms and Definitions


Pro Rata Metrics— The portfolio information above contains certain metrics prepared under the pro rata consolidation method. We refer to these metrics as pro rata metrics. We have a number of investments, usually with our affiliates, in which our economic ownership is less than 100%. Under the full consolidation method, we report 100% of the assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses of those investments that are deemed to be under our control or for which we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary, even if our ownership is less than 100%. Also, for all other jointly owned investments, which we do not control, we report our net investment and our net income or loss from that investment. Under the pro rata consolidation method, we present our proportionate share, based on our economic ownership of these jointly owned investments, of the portfolio metrics of those investments. Multiplying each of our jointly owned investments’ financial statement line items by our percentage ownership and adding or subtracting those amounts from our totals, as applicable, may not accurately depict the legal and economic implications of holding an ownership interest of less than 100% in our jointly owned investments.


ABR ABR represents contractual minimum annualized base rent for our net-leased properties, net of receivable reserves as determined by GAAP, and reflects exchange rates as of March 31,September 30, 2019. If there is a rent abatement, we annualize the first monthly contractual base rent following the free rent period. ABR is not applicable to operating properties.

Results of Operations
 
We operate in two reportable segments: Real Estate and Investment Management. We evaluate our results of operations with a primary focus on increasing and enhancing the value, quality, and number of properties in our Real Estate segment. We focus our efforts on accretive investing and improving portfolio quality through re-leasing efforts, including negotiation of lease renewals, or selectively selling assets in order to increase value in our real estate portfolio. Through our Investment Management segment, we expect to continue to earn fees and other income from the management of the portfolios of the remaining Managed Programs until those programs reach the end of their respective life cycles.

W. P. Carey 9/30/2019 10-Q59




Property level contribution is a non-GAAP measure that we believe to be a useful supplemental measure for management and investors in evaluating and analyzing the financial results of our net-leased and operating properties included in our Real Estate segment over time. Property level contribution presents our lease and operating property revenues, less property expenses, reimbursable tenant costs, and depreciation and amortization. Reimbursable tenant costs (within Real Estate revenues) are now included within Lease revenues in the consolidated statements of income (Note 2). We believe that Property level contribution allows for meaningful comparison between periods of the direct costs of owning and operating our net-leased assets and operating properties. While we believe that Property level contribution is a useful supplemental measure, it should not be considered as an alternative to Net income from Real Estate attributable to W. P. Carey as an indication of our operating performance.


Existing Net-Leased Properties


Existing net-leased properties are those that we acquired or placed into service prior to January 1, 2018 and that were not sold or held for sale during the periods presented. For the periods presented, there were 798793 existing net-leased properties.


For the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 as compared to the same periodperiods in 2018, lease revenues from existing net-leased properties increased by $3.3$2.5 million due to new leases, $1.6and $5.9 million, respectively, related to scheduled rent increases, $2.4 million and $1.3$9.0 million, respectively, due to new leases, $2.0 million and $2.5 million, respectively, primarily due to accelerated amortization of an above-market rent lease intangible during the prior year periods in connection with a lease restructuring, and $1.1 million and $3.7 million, respectively, related to completed construction projects on existing properties. These increases were partially offset by decreases of $3.9$2.3 million and $9.0 million, respectively, as a result of the weakening of foreign currencies (primarily the euro) in relation to the U.S. dollar between the periods and $1.7$0.7 million and $3.7 million, respectively, due to lease expirations and rejections. Depreciation and amortization expense from existing net-leased properties decreased primarily due to accelerated amortization of two in-place lease intangibles during the prior year periods in connection with lease terminations, as a result ofwell as the weakening of foreign currencies (primarily the euro) in relation to the U.S. dollar between the periods, as well as accelerated amortization of an in-place lease intangible during the prior year period in connection with a lease termination in the fourth quarter of 2017.periods.

Loss on Change in Control of $1.5Interests

During the third quarter of 2019, we identified certain measurement period adjustments that impacted the provisional accounting for an investment we acquired in the CPA:17 Merger (Note 3), in which we had a joint interest and accounted for under the equity method pre-merger. As a result, we recorded a loss on change in control of interests of $8.4 million relatedduring both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, reflecting adjustments to the settlementdifference between our carrying value and the preliminary estimated fair value of foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency collars.this former equity interest on October 31, 2018 (Note 5).

For the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018, provision for income taxes within our Real Estate segment increased by $3.1 million, primarily due to a decrease of $2.2 million in deferred tax benefits related to a valuation allowance reduction during the prior year period, as a result of the disposition of certain properties.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recorded a provision for income taxes of $6.2$12.7 million, compared to a benefit from income taxes of $3.5$1.8 million recognized during the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2018, within our Real Estate segment.

In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we recognized a deferred tax benefit of approximately $6.2 million as a result of the release of a deferred tax liability relating to a property holding company that was no longer required due to a change in tax classification. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we also recognized a provision for income taxes totaling $2.6 million related to properties acquired in the CPA:17 Merger on October 31, 2018 (Note 3).


Net Loss (Income) Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

Investment Management


We earn revenue as the advisor to the Managed Programs. For the periods presented, we acted as advisor to the following Managed Programs: CPA:17 – Global (through October 31, 2018), CPA:18 – Global, CWI 1, CWI 2, and CESH. Upon completion of the CPA:17 Merger on October 31, 2018 (Note 3), the advisory agreements with CPA:17 – Global were terminated and we ceased earning revenue from CPA:17 – Global. We no longer raise capital for new or existing funds, but we currently expect to continue to manage all existing Managed Programs and earn the various fees described below through the end of their respective life cycles (Note 1, Note 3). As of March 31,September 30, 2019, we managed total assets of approximately $7.6 billion on behalf of the remaining Managed Programs.

Asset Management Revenue
 
During the periods presented, we earned asset management revenue from (i) CPA:17 – Global (prior to the CPA:17 Merger) and CPA:18 – Global based on the value of their real estate-related assets under management, (ii) the CWI REITs based on the value of their lodging-related assets under management, and (iii) CESH based on its gross assets under management at fair value. Asset management revenue may increase or decrease depending upon changes in the Managed Programs’ asset bases as a result of purchases, sales, or changes in the appraised value of the real estate-related and lodging-related assets in their investment portfolios. For 2019, (i) we receive asset management fees from CPA:18 – Global 50% in cash and 50% in shares of its common stock, (ii) we receive asset management fees from the CWI REITs in shares of their common stock, and (iii) we receive asset management fees from CESH in cash. As a result of the CPA:17 Merger (Note 3), we no longer receive asset management revenue from CPA:17 – Global.


For the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 as compared to the same periodperiods in 2018, asset management revenue decreased by $7.3$7.5 million and $22.2 million, respectively, primarily due to a decreasedecreases in asset management revenue of $7.5$7.6 million and $22.6 million, respectively, as a result of the cessation of asset management revenue earned from CPA:17 – Global after the CPA:17 Merger on October 31, 2018 (Note 3).

Reimbursable Costs from Affiliates
 
Reimbursable costs from affiliates represent costs incurred by us on behalf of the Managed Programs. Following the CPA:17 Merger (Note 3), we no longer receive reimbursement of certain personnel costs and overhead costs from CPA:17 – Global, which totaled $1.8$2.0 million and $5.6 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2018.September 30, 2018, respectively.


Structuring and Other Advisory Revenue


We earn structuring revenue when we structure investments and debt placement transactions for the Managed Programs. Structuring revenue is dependent on investment activity, which is subject to significant period-to-period variation, and is expected to continue to decline on an annual basis in future periods because the Managed Programs are fully invested, we no longer raise capital for new or existing funds, and as a result of the CPA:17 Merger. Going forward, investment activity for the Managed Programs will be generally limited to capital recycling. In addition, we may earn disposition revenue when we complete dispositions for the Managed Programs.


For the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 as compared to the same periodperiods in 2018, structuring and other advisory revenue increaseddecreased by $0.6 million.$6.1 million and $9.9 million, respectively. Structuring and other advisory revenue from CPA:18 – Global was $1.2decreased by $5.4 million and $1.3$8.5 million, respectively, while structuring and other advisory revenue from CPA:17 – Global totaled $1.0 million and $1.2 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019 andSeptember 30, 2018, respectively, reflecting one new investment in a student housing development project in each period. We received disposition fees from CPA:18 – Global totaling $1.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019, related to the disposition of properties for CPA:18 – Global. In addition, structuring revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2018 included $0.4 million from CWI 1 related to a mortgage loan refinancing.respectively.


General and Administrative


General and administrative expenses recorded by our Investment Management segment are allocated based on time incurred by our personnel for the Real Estate and Investment Management segments. As discussed in Note 3, certain personnel costs and overhead costs are charged to CPA:18 – Global based on the trailing 12-month reported revenues of the Managed Programs and us. We allocate certain personnel and overhead costs to the CWI REITs and CESH based on the time incurred by our personnel.


For the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 as compared to the same periodperiods in 2018, general and administrative expenses in our Investment Management segment decreased by $0.4$1.3 million and $2.8 million, respectively, primarily due to a decrease in time spent by management and personnel on Investment Management segment activities.

Subadvisor Fees


Pursuant to the terms of the subadvisory agreements we have with the third-party subadvisors in connection with both CWI 1 and CWI 2, we pay a subadvisory fee equal to 20% of the amount of fees paid to us by CWI 1 and 25% of the amount of fees paid to us by CWI 2, including but not limited to: acquisition fees, asset management fees, loan refinancing fees, property management fees, and subordinated disposition fees, each as defined in the advisory agreements we have with each of CWI 1 and CWI 2.

In 2018, CPA:18 – Global sold five of its six multi-family properties and in January 2019 CPA:18 – Global sold its remaining multi-family property. We also terminated the related subadvisory agreement,agreements, so subadvisor fees related to CPA:18 – Global will cease in future periods.have ceased.


For both the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 as compared to the same periodperiods in 2018, subadvisor fees were substantially unchanged.decreased by $1.4 million, primarily as a result of the termination of subadvisory agreements entered into on behalf of CPA:18 – Global, as described above.


Stock-based Compensation Expense


For the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018, stock-based compensation expense allocated to our Investment Management segment decreased by $2.5$2.6 million, primarily due to the modification of RSUs and PSUs in connection with the retirement of our former chief executive officer in February 2018 (Note 12), as well as a decrease in time spent by management and personnel on Investment Management segment activities.

(b)
We are entitled to receive distributions of up to 10% of the Available Cash from the operating partnerships of each of the Managed REITs, as defined in their respective operating partnership agreements (Note 3). We are required to pay 20% and 25% of such distributions to the subadvisors of CWI 1 and CWI 2, respectively.

(Provision for) Benefit from Income Taxes


For the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018,we recognized a provision for income taxes of $0.6 million and a benefit from income taxes increased by $5.8of $7.5 million, respectively, as compared to provision for income taxes of $2.3 million and $4.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, within our Investment Management segment, primarily as a result of lower pre-tax income within that segment. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized a current tax benefit of approximately $6.3 million due to a change in tax position for state and local taxes, which resulted in a current tax benefit of approximately $6.3 million recognized during the current year period.taxes.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


Sources and Uses of Cash During the Period
 
We use the cash flow generated from our investments primarily to meet our operating expenses, service debt, and fund dividends to stockholders. Our cash flows fluctuate periodically due to a number of factors, which may include, among other things: the timing of our equity and debt offerings; the timing of purchases and sales of real estate; the timing of the repayment of mortgage loans and receipt of lease revenues; the timing and amount of other lease-related payments; the receipt of the annual installment of deferred acquisition revenue from CPA:18 – Global; the receipt of the asset management fees in either shares of the common stock or limited partnership units of the Managed Programs or cash; the timing of distributions from equity investments in the Managed Programs and real estate; the receipt of distributions of Available Cash from the Managed REITs; the timing of settlement of foreign currency transactions; and changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We no longer receive certain fees and distributions from CPA:17 – Global following the completion of the CPA:17 Merger on October 31, 2018 (Note 3). Despite these fluctuations, we believe that we will generate sufficient cash from operations to meet our normal recurring short-term and long-term liquidity needs. We may also use existing cash resources, available capacity under our Senior Unsecured Credit Facility, proceeds from dispositions of properties, net contributions from noncontrolling interests, and the issuance of additional debt or equity securities, such as sales of our stock through our ATM Program, in order to meet these needs. We assess our ability to access capital on an ongoing basis. Our sources and uses of cash during the period are described below.

Cash Resources
 
At March 31,September 30, 2019, our cash resources consisted of the following:
 
cash and cash equivalents totaling $243.3$331.7 million. Of this amount, $124.0$125.2 million, at then-current exchange rates, was held in foreign subsidiaries, and we could be subject to restrictions or significant costs should we decide to repatriate these amounts;
our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, with available capacity of $1.4$1.5 billion; and
unleveraged properties that had an aggregate asset carrying value of $6.7$8.1 billion at March 31,September 30, 2019, although there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain financing for these properties.


We have also accessed the capital markets through additional debt and equity offerings, such as the $325.0 million of 3.850% Senior Notes due 2029 that we issued in June 2019 (Note 10), the €500.0 million of 1.350% Senior Notes due 2028 that we issued in September 2019 (Note 10), and the shares of common stock issued under our ATM Programs. During the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019, we issued 4,053,6231,502,572 and 6,672,412 shares, respectively, of our common stock under our current and former ATM Programs at a weighted-average price of $76.17$88.76 and $79.70 per share, respectively, for net proceeds of $303.8 million.$131.4 million and $523.5 million, respectively. As of March 31,September 30, 2019, $248.8$616.6 million remained available for issuance under our current ATM Program (Note 12). See Note 16, Subsequent Events for issuances under our ATM Program subsequent to March 31, 2019 and through the date of this Report.


Our cash resources can be used for working capital needs and other commitments and may be used for future investments.


Cash Requirements
 
During the next 12 months, we expect that our cash requirements will include payments to acquire new investments; funding capital commitments such as construction projects; paying dividends to our stockholders; paying distributions to our affiliates that hold noncontrolling interests in entities we control; making scheduled interest payments on the Senior Unsecured Notes, scheduled principal and balloon payments on our mortgage loan obligations, and prepayments of certain of our mortgage loan obligations; and other normal recurring operating expenses.

We expect to fund future investments, construction commitments, any capital expenditures on existing properties, scheduled debt maturities on non-recourse mortgage loans, and anymaking loans to certain of the Managed Programs (Note 3); and other normal recurring operating expenses. We expect to fund these cash requirements through cash generated from operations, cash received from dispositions of properties, the use of our cash reserves or unused amounts on our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, issuances of shares through our ATM Program, and/or additional equity or debt offerings.


Our liquidity would be adversely affected by unanticipated costs and greater-than-anticipated operating expenses. To the extent that our working capital reserve is insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, additional funds may be provided from cash from operations to meet our normal recurring short-term and long-term liquidity needs. We may also use existing cash resources, available capacity under our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, net contributions from noncontrolling interests, mortgage loan proceeds, and the issuance of additional debt or equity securities, such as through our ATM Program, to meet these needs.

Supplemental Financial Measures


In the real estate industry, analysts and investors employ certain non-GAAP supplemental financial measures in order to facilitate meaningful comparisons between periods and among peer companies. Additionally, in the formulation of our goals and in the evaluation of the effectiveness of our strategies, we use Funds from Operations (“FFO”) and AFFO, which are non-GAAP measures defined by our management. We believe that these measures are useful to investors to consider because they may assist them to better understand and measure the performance of our business over time and against similar companies. A description of FFO and AFFO and reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided below.


Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds from Operations
 
Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, as discussed below, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”), an industry trade group, has promulgated a non-GAAP measure known as FFO, which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental measure, when used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP, to reflect the operating performance of a REIT. The use of FFO is recommended by the REIT industry as a supplemental non-GAAP measure. FFO is not equivalent to, nor a substitute for, net income or loss as determined under GAAP.
 


W. P. Carey 3/31/2019 10-Q64




We define FFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the standards established by the White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, as restated in December 2018. The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of property, impairment charges on real estate, gains or losses on changes in control of interests in real estate, and depreciation and amortization from real estate assets; and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments are calculated to reflect FFO. Our FFO calculation complies with NAREIT’s policy described above.


We also modify the NAREIT computation of FFO to include other adjustments toadjust GAAP net income to adjust for certain non-cash charges, such as amortization of real estate-related intangibles, deferred income tax benefits and expenses, straight-line rents, stock-based compensation, non-cash environmental accretion expense, and amortization of deferred financing costs. Our assessment of our operations is focused on long-term sustainability and not on such non-cash items, which may cause short-term fluctuations in net income but have no impact on cash flows. Additionally, we exclude non-core income and expenses, such as gains or losses from extinguishment of debt, restructuring and other compensation-related expenses, and merger and acquisition expenses. We also exclude realized and unrealized gains/losses on foreign exchange transactions (other than those realized on the settlement of foreign currency derivatives), which are not considered fundamental attributes of our business plan and do not affect our overall long-term operating performance. We refer to our modified definition of FFO as AFFO. We exclude these items from GAAP net income to arrive at AFFO as they are not the primary drivers in our decision-making process and excluding these items provides investors a view of our portfolio performance over time and makes it more comparable to other REITs whichthat are currently not engaged in acquisitions, mergers, and restructuring, which are not part of our normal business operations. AFFO also reflects adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. We use AFFO as one measure of our


W. P. Carey 9/30/2019 10-Q71




operating performance when we formulate corporate goals, evaluate the effectiveness of our strategies, and determine executive compensation.


We believe that AFFO is a useful supplemental measure for investors to consider as we believe it will help them to better assess the sustainability of our operating performance without the potentially distorting impact of these short-term fluctuations. However, there are limits on the usefulness of AFFO to investors. For example, impairment charges and unrealized foreign currency losses that we exclude may become actual realized losses upon the ultimate disposition of the properties in the form of lower cash proceeds or other considerations. We use our FFO and AFFO measures as supplemental financial measures of operating performance. We do not use our FFO and AFFO measures as, nor should they be considered to be, alternatives to net income computed under GAAP, or as alternatives to net cash provided by operating activities computed under GAAP, or as indicators of our ability to fund our cash needs.

__________
(a)
Amounts for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 represent a loss recognized on the purchase of the remaining interest in a real estate investment from CPA:17 – Global in the CPA:17 Merger, which we had previously accounted for under the equity method. We recognized this loss because we identified certain measurement period adjustments during the third quarter of 2019 that impacted the provisional accounting for this investment (Note 3, Note 5).
(b)Equity income, including amounts that are not typically recognized for FFO and AFFO, is recognized within Equity in earnings of equity method investments in the Managed Programs and real estate on the consolidated statements of income. This represents adjustments to equity income to reflect FFO and AFFO on a pro rata basis.
(c)Adjustments disclosed elsewhere in this reconciliation are on a consolidated basis. This adjustment reflects our FFO or AFFO on a pro rata basis.
(d)Primarily comprised of unrealized gains and losses on derivatives, and gains and losses from foreign currency movements, extinguishment of debt, and marketable securities. Beginning in the second quarter of 2019, we aggregated (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt and realized (gains) losses on foreign currency (both of which were previously disclosed as separate AFFO adjustment line items), as well as certain other adjustments, within this line item, which is comprised of adjustments related to Other gains and (losses) on our consolidated statements of income. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
(e)Amount for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 includes a current tax benefit, which is excluded from AFFO as it was incurred as a result of the CPA:17 Merger.
(b)(f)Primarily represents unrealized gains and losses from foreign exchange movements and derivatives.
Amounts are primarily comprised of costs incurred in connection with the CPA:17 Merger (Note 3).


While we believe that FFO and AFFO are important supplemental measures, they should not be considered as alternatives to net income as an indication of a company’s operating performance. These non-GAAP measures should be used in conjunction with net income as defined by GAAP. FFO and AFFO, or similarly titled measures disclosed by other REITs, may not be comparable to our FFO and AFFO measures.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
 
Market Risk
 
Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, and equity prices. The primary risks that we are exposed to are interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange risk. We are also exposed to further market risk as a result of tenant concentrations in certain industries and/or geographic regions, since adverse market factors can affect the ability of tenants in a particular industry/region to meet their respective lease obligations. In order to manage this risk, we view our collective tenant roster as a portfolio and we attempt to diversify such portfolio so that we are not overexposed to a particular industry or geographic region.


Generally, we do not use derivative instruments to hedge credit/market risks or for speculative purposes. However, from time to time, we may enter into foreign currency forward contracts and collars to hedge our foreign currency cash flow exposures.
 


W. P. Carey 3/31/2019 10-Q68




Interest Rate Risk
 
The values of our real estate and related fixed-rate debt obligations, as well as the values of our unsecured debt obligations, are subject to fluctuations based on changes in interest rates. The value of our real estate is also subject to fluctuations based on local and regional economic conditions and changes in the creditworthiness of lessees, which may affect our ability to refinance property-level mortgage debt when balloon payments are scheduled, if we do not choose to repay the debt when due. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political conditions, and other factors beyond our control. An increase in interest rates would likely cause the fair value of our owned and managed assets to decrease, which would create lower revenues from managed assets and lower investment performance for the Managed REITs. Increases in interest rates may also have an impact on the credit profile of certain tenants.


We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through our borrowing activities. To limit this exposure, we generally seek long-term debt financing on a fixed-rate basis. However, from time to time, we or our joint investment partners obtained, and may in the future obtain, variable-rate non-recourse mortgage loans and, as a result, we have entered into, and may continue to enter into, interest rate swap agreements or interest rate cap agreements with counterparties. See Note 9 for additional information on our interest rate swaps and caps.


At March 31,September 30, 2019, a significant portion (approximately 94.3%96.9%) of our long-term debt either bore interest at fixed rates or was swapped or capped to a fixed rate. Our debt obligations are more fully described in Note 10 and Liquidity and Capital Resources — Summary of Financing in Item 2 above. The following table presents principal cash flows based upon expected maturity dates of our debt obligations outstanding at March 31,September 30, 2019 (in thousands):

(a)Amounts are based on the exchange rate at March 31,September 30, 2019, as applicable.
(b)
Amounts after 2023 are primarily comprised of principal payments for our Senior Unsecured Notes (Note 10).


The estimated fair value of our fixed-rate debt and our variable-rate debt that currently bears interest at fixed rates or has effectively been converted to a fixed rate through the use of interest rate swaps, or that has been subject to interest rate caps, is affected by changes in interest rates. Annual interest expense on our unhedged variable-rate debt that does not bear interest at fixed rates at March 31,September 30, 2019 would increase or decrease by $1.9$1.0 million for our U.S. dollar-denominated debt, by $1.2$0.5 million for our euro-denominated debt, by $0.2 million for our Japanese yen-denominated debt, and by $0.2 million for our British pound sterling-denominated debt for each respective 1% change in annual interest rates.


Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
 
We own international investments, primarily in Europe, Canada, and Japan, and as a result are subject to risk from the effects of exchange rate movements in various foreign currencies, primarily the euro, the British pound sterling, the Danish krone, the Canadian dollar, and the Japanese yen, which may affect future costs and cash flows. We have obtained, and may in the future


W. P. Carey 9/30/2019 10-Q76




obtain, non-recourse mortgage financing in the local currency. We have also completed fourfive offerings of euro-denominated senior notes, and have borrowed under our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility in foreign currencies, including the euro and Japanese yen (Note 10). To the extent that currency fluctuations increase or decrease rental revenues, as translated to U.S. dollars, the change in debt service, as translated to U.S. dollars, will partially offset the effect of fluctuations in revenue and, to some extent, mitigate the risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. In addition, we may use currency hedging to further reduce the exposure to our equity cash flow. We are generally a net receiver of these currencies (we receive more cash than we pay out), and therefore our foreign operations benefit from a weaker U.S. dollar and are adversely affected by a stronger U.S. dollar, relative to the foreign currency.


We enter into foreign currency forward contracts and collars to hedge certain of our foreign currency cash flow exposures. See Note 9 for additional information on our foreign currency forward contracts and collars.

AmountsDebt service amounts included the equivalent of $2.2$2.7 billion of euro-denominated senior notes maturing from 2023 through 2027, and the equivalent of $55.1 million borrowed in euro under our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, which is scheduled to mature on February 22, 2021 (unless extended pursuant to its terms) but may be prepaid prior to that date pursuant to its terms2028 (Note 10).
(c)We estimate that, for a 1% increase or decrease in the exchange rate between the British pound sterling and the U.S. dollar, there would be a corresponding change in the projected estimated cash flow at March 31,September 30, 2019 of $4.1$3.7 million, excluding the impact of our derivative instruments.
(d)
We estimate that, for a 1% increase or decrease in the exchange rate between the Japanese yen and the U.S. dollar, there would be a corresponding change in the projected estimated cash flow at March 31,September 30, 2019 of $0.1$0.2 million. AmountsDebt service amounts included the equivalent of $21.8$22.4 million borrowed in Japanese yen under our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, which is scheduled to mature on February 22, 2021 (unless extended pursuant to its terms) but may be prepaid prior to that date pursuant to its terms (Note 10).
(e)Other foreign currencies for future lease payments consist of the Danish krone, the Norwegian krone, the Canadian dollar, and the Swedish krona.

Concentration of Credit Risk


Concentrations of credit risk arise when a number of tenants are engaged in similar business activities or have similar economic risks or conditions that could cause them to default on their lease obligations to us. We regularly monitor our portfolio to assess potential concentrations of credit risk. While we believe our portfolio is well-diversified, it does contain concentrations in certain areas. There have been no material changes in our concentration of credit risk from what was disclosed in the 2018 Annual Report.

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, our consolidated portfolio had the following significant characteristics in excess of 10%, based on the percentage of our consolidated total revenues:

67% related to domestic operations; and
33% related to international operations.





W. P. Carey 3/31/9/30/2019 10-Q7078




At March 31, 2019, our net-lease portfolio, which excludes our operating properties, had the following significant property and lease characteristics in excess of 10% in certain areas, based on the percentage of our ABR as of that date:

64% related to domestic properties;
36% related to international properties;
26% related to office facilities, 23% related to industrial facilities, 21% related to warehouse facilities, and 18% related to retail facilities; and
21% related to the retail stores industry (including automotive dealerships).
